The angle grinders are a fantastic tool.  I bought a Dewalt DW402 with
the metal head for about $80 and love it.  There is a noticeable
difference in harbor freight quality, but at $20 you could buy 4, so go
for it.  In addition to the grinding disk, get a cutting blade, cupped
wire wheel, and disk wire wheel.

Also try the switch.  I used a friends Hitachi and don't like the way the
switch works (my preference - others like it).

I like electric because the electric cord is more flexible than an air
hose.  This makes a difference in confined areas.

Also remember safety.  Always wear eye protection and gloves.  If you're
making dust add a dusk mask or respirator.
